To access per-task data, BPF programs usually creates a hash table with
pid as the key. This is not ideal because:
1. The user need to estimate the proper size of the hash table, which may
be inaccurate;
2. Big hash tables are slow;
3. To clean up the data properly during task terminations, the user need
to write extra logic.
Task local storage overcomes these issues and offers a better option for
these per-task data. Task local storage is only available to BPF_LSM. Now
enable it for tracing programs.
Unlike LSM programs, tracing programs can be called in IRQ contexts.
Helpers that access task local storage are updated to use
raw_spin_lock_irqsave() instead of raw_spin_lock_bh().
Tracing programs can attach to functions on the task free path, e.g.
exit_creds(). To avoid allocating task local storage after
bpf_task_storage_free(). bpf_task_storage_get() is updated to not allocate
new storage when the task is not refcounted (task->usage == 0).

The verifier allows ARG_PTR_TO_BTF_ID helper arguments to be NULL, so
helper implementations need to check this before dereferencing them.
This was already fixed for the socket storage helpers but not for task
and inode.
The issue can be reproduced by attaching an LSM program to
inode_rename hook (called when moving files) which tries to get the
inode of the new file without checking for its nullness and then trying
to move an existing file to a new path:
mv existing_file new_file_does_not_exist

In bpf_pid_task_storage_update_elem(), it missed to
test the !task_storage_ptr(task) which then could trigger a NULL
pointer exception in bpf_local_storage_update().

Similar to bpf_local_storage for sockets and inodes add local storage
for task_struct.
The life-cycle of storage is managed with the life-cycle of the
task_struct. i.e. the storage is destroyed along with the owning task
with a callback to the bpf_task_storage_free from the task_free LSM
hook.
The BPF LSM allocates an __rcu pointer to the bpf_local_storage in
the security blob which are now stackable and can co-exist with other
LSMs.
The userspace map operations can be done by using a pid fd as a key
passed to the lookup, update and delete operations.
